In my last post, I shared the rules my
family put together for our first ever Independence Day &ndash; a
day when the girls got to do whatever they wanted, whenever they
wanted, but had to be totally independent. They had to feed
themselves, clean up after themselves, and if they wanted to go
somewhere...text/html2014-05-27T00:00:00+01:00http://www.1mother2another.comIndependence Dayhttp://www.1mother2another.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1975&Itemid=50
Several months ago I read about a family
that periodically does and Independence Day: one day with no

Li&rsquo;l Bit, this is a tough time for
you right now.
You, my friend, have such a big heart. And as we&rsquo;ve talked
about &ndash; a LOT &ndash; recently, Big Hearts tend to have Big
Feelings. And sometimes those Big Feelings are hard to control.
Which means you&rsquo;ve spilled more than your fair share of...
